Cool Spaces: The Nines

WORDS Michaela Stehr PHOTOS Supplied

The Nines, Sea Point’s latest luxury addition to its bustling restaurant scene, offers a stylishly relaxed cocktail bar-cum-rooftop restaurant.

Proudly presented by The Kove Collection (their previous most recent endeavour being Sonny & Irene), The Nines elevates dining and sundowners to the roof of Sea Point, where guest can soak in views in one of Cape Town’s much-loved suburbs.

Situated on the ninth floor of the new Station House at 19 Kloof Road, The Nines is designed to provide 270 degree views overlooking upper Sea Point. Guests are immersed in the spectacular setting through floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the feeling of the enchanting Atlantic Ocean into the space, making the space a perfect option for a breezy summer lunch, or a romantic sunset dinner.

“We wanted to create a warm and inviting space where people can come to indulge in incredible food,” explains Alison Thomas, Head of Operations. “The Nines is a special venue where people can come to create memories with the people that they love for years to come.”

The menu boasts classics done right, with a carefully curated list of favourite that appeal to a variety of palates without overcomplicating things, think Lates Seabass, Lezena Spatchcock Roast Chicken and Seafood Risotto.

The interiors are designed to mirror the world outside, with a focus on summery organic shades or sand, taupe and stone complimented with oak panelling and comfortable sink-into couches. Whether you decide to pop in for a meal, or lounge at the cocktail bar and deck, it’ll be a summer hit.

The Nines is open for lunch and dinner, seven days a week. Ample, secure parking and ground-floor access lead to elevators directly up to the ninth floor of Station House.
